At that moment, Pei Qian had just woken up.
He casually browsed the news and realized that stocks and funds had fallen again recently. Many people online were wailing, saying that they had fallen by thousands or tens of thousands of yuan.
"Fortunately, I don't know anything. I never buy these."
"Humans have to know their own limits. Don't rashly enter a field that you don't understand."
"Otherwise, how painful would it be if it fell by tens of thousands of yuan? It would be worse than earning a million yuan for the company."
Pei Qian could not help but praise his intelligence and wit.
After washing up, he went to the various forums to check on the situation of IOI's world finals while waiting for the takeaway.
Many players were discussing on the forum. Some posts were posted during the competition two days ago, and some were new posts at noon today. However, the number of posts was relatively small.
"FV Team is starting to perform again?"
"The foreign teams are also starting to interact!"
"FV Team is very popular now after all."
"It's true that they are very popular. They failed in the group stages last week. In the end, the popularity in China and abroad exploded. The post-competition analysis programs in Europe and the United States used more than 70% of the space to discuss this competition and FV Team's weakness …"
"There's no other way. Last year's international competition left a deep impression on everyone. He has always been a demon king. Wouldn't the other teams have to brag about it if they could win?"
"FV Team should adjust as soon as possible. Finger Games is really too shameless. This version update is too targeted! The performance now is really worrying! "
"Hey, how can there be popularity if they don't perform? Everyone is keeping a low profile. It won't be exciting if there's no gunpowder before the competition. "
"The competition authorities and the other clubs are obviously cooperating. Didn't you notice that there are more and more interactions between the clubs? What's more, you can tell from the promotional video that they seem to be trying their best to create a demon king persona for FV Team. "
"How can they be so biased towards ICL teams?"
"Biased? Stop fooling around. This is to raise the villains very high first. That way, the main character who wins against the villains will be glorious enough, understand? "
"I understand … the official platform has a deep plan!"
Ever since Pei Qian made that call, FV Team had continued to display the good tradition of performing. Not only did they comment on other teams' competitions, but they also interacted crazily with their opponents or other popular teams before and after their own competition.
The competition authorities and the other clubs were also very cooperative. Obviously, they were creating hype around FV Team.
In China, this trend could also be seen on Weibo and various major forums.
However, the domestic audience was very smart. They could tell that this was not the official platform supporting FV Team.
There was nothing they could do about the current situation. That was because FV Team had a lot of attention and traffic because they were last year's champions. What's more, FV Team was very good at performing and had a strong influence on foreign forums.
They wanted to avoid FV Team and support other European and American teams? It's a little difficult.
On one hand, the effect of this method was very poor, and on the other hand, the exposure of the opportunity was too obvious.
Thus, IOI's organizers had actually adopted another more reliable method. On the surface, they looked like they were openly acknowledging FV Team and giving them many opportunities to show their faces. However, in fact, once FV Team lost, the team that won would be able to snatch away all the popularity.
At that time, the organizers of the competition would be able to use this popularity to create gods, create enough topics, and transfer all this popularity to themselves.
There was no other way. At the moment, IOI World Competition's discussion was a little too low. It was a little uncomfortable being suppressed by the popularity of GOG's international invitational tournament. If they did not stir up the popularity, they would really enter the elimination stage without a sound.
The facts proved that this was indeed effective. In the end, the key was to see which team could win the championship.
Pei Qian heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this situation.
There was no need to talk about who would win the championship. At the very least, IOI World Competition had become more popular.
What Pei Qian was most afraid of was not FV Team winning the championship, but the lukewarm popularity of IOI World Competition. It was not a threat to GOG at all.
He had to choose the lesser of two evils. If FV could win the championship again and bring IOI World Competition to the top, that would be an acceptable outcome.
After flipping through a few more pages, he did not see any new posts.
IOI's competition only started at night after all. They had already discussed yesterday's competition. The popularity of the forum had obviously decreased.
However, just as Pei Qian was about to quit, he saw a new post.
This new post was not discussing IOI's competition, but GOG!
“？？？”
At that moment, Pei Qian had an ominous feeling. He quickly clicked on it.
"GOG's version has been updated. There's a new viewing system that connects directly to the game and live-stream platform. It might still be in beta, but gamers are already having a good time. They're all waiting for today's competition. Sigh, IOI really can't do anything. They're always one step slower than others in such things. No wonder GOG has always been riding on their heads. "
Soon, many people left comments.
"One step slower? Are you sure you're just one step slower? I think it's not bad if IOI can create this function within half a year! "
"Connect to the game client and live-stream platform? What's the use of that? Isn't it the same as watching the competition? "
"Of course not. The details of the competition can be seen at a glance. There's too much to discuss! Putting everything else aside, IOI's competition only has a damage panel at the end. You can't see the other data, such as damage, healing, eye insertion, player skill points, and current experience points, or you have to search for it on the website, right? Some data can't even be found on the website. However, GOG's system allows you to watch the game directly in the client. You can switch the camera freely, click on the hero's attributes, and watch everything! "
"Doesn't that mean we can't listen to the commentary?"
"Do you think others can't think of what you can think of? There's a function inside. You can change the source to listen to different commentary, and you can also open the official live-stream directly. It's not a waste of time! "
"It sounds a bit like black technology!"
"There's no such thing as black technology. I heard that it's not particularly advanced technology. It's just that the interests involved are more complicated. It's difficult for game companies and live-stream platforms to reach cooperation."
"I think it has something to do with GOG's perfect viewing system. IOI doesn't seem to pay much attention to this aspect. Many players have raised their opinions, but they won't change it. It's still so difficult to use!"
This post soon received a large number of replies. IOI's players expressed their envy and hatred. At the same time, they felt a little resentful towards IOI.
These emotions were very complicated. They should have been used to it long ago, but they still felt very sour.
Did this function improve the viewing of the competition?
It definitely did.
Watching the competition normally on the live-stream platform would only be able to follow the official OB camera. Many details would inevitably be overlooked.
Many viewers wanted to replay the game, but they could only watch the official video over and over again. They still could not see the details that they should not see.
That included the timing and technique of the insertion, the details of the alignment, and the factors that affected each player's decision. It would take a lot of patience to dig out all this information from the official video.
However, GOG's audience could freely observe and watch whatever they wanted. All the information in the entire game would be exposed.
With more information, there would definitely be more topics to talk about and more discussions to be had.
There was never a lack of Leeuwenhoek in the audience. They were best at finding the key points that would affect the direction of the competition in the smallest of details. GOG's new function was undoubtedly giving Leeuwenhoek a more high-definition microscope!
There were also many people who were discussing when this function was developed.
Some said that this function must have been developed a long time ago. They had been preparing for at least a few months just for the international competition.
Some also said that this function was not difficult with the current technical level. What's more, GOG had already made a very complete OB system in the game. They had left a good interface and could create it quickly.
Some people also said that the development of this function itself was not the key. The key was to cooperate well with the live-stream platform. Both sides had to work together and not argue with each other. Otherwise, it would be impossible to do it.
Pei Qian was puzzled as well.
That's right. When was this function made?
It looked like it had been prepared for a long time. Could Chen Yufeng have done it secretly?
He would not be wronged for this bitter journey. He even had to be given more!
However, the post disappeared as he was browsing.
It had been deleted!
Obviously, the moderator had deleted the post because he saw that the post was getting more and more popular and the smell of gunpowder was getting heavier.
That was because as the number of people discussing increased, many people naturally began to compare GOG and IOI and scold IOI. The two groups of people easily quarreled and created a foul atmosphere.
The moderator also knew that there was no point in arguing about this matter. The key was that they could not scold Finger Games even if they scolded them, right? They might as well delete the post and let everyone continue discussing the game and the competition.
There was no other way. If they allowed everyone to continue discussing, would this forum be IOI's forum or GOG's forum?
In the end, it was obviously meaningless because everyone had gone elsewhere to discuss!
Pei Qian felt dizzy. He felt that something was amiss!
This wasn't a simple matter for the spectator system.
This spectator system allowed the audience to see the details of the competition to multiply. In other words, it would provide them with a lot of material for discussion.
This would definitely greatly increase the popularity of some key competitions!
That was because if one really used a microscope to look at each player's performance, there would be several posts. The performance in the competition, the key team battle, and so on would be several posts.
In addition, many UP Masters could create post-competition analysis videos for themselves. It would also greatly increase the popularity of the competition's secondary dissemination.
Another key point was that this function was directly bound to Bunny Tail Live-Stream. It was equivalent to all GOG clients having a built-in platform for Bunny Tail Live-Stream!
If the popularity of GOG's international invitational tournament soared before, during, and after the competition, wouldn't the popularity that IOI had worked so hard to create be suppressed again?
